The decision was made in agreement with Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali but has yet to be validated by the constituent assembly, Tunisia's interim parliament, the statement said.
Nabli, a former World Bank economist, was appointed days after a popular uprising ousted longtime president Zine el Abidine Ben Ali, under whom he served as a minister between 1990 and 1995.
According to observers, Nabli fell out with the authorities after fiercely defending the central bank's independence from attempts by the governing Islamist party Ennahda to influence its policies.
The decision made by the Presidency will be submitted for approval to the National Constituent Assembly (NCA) within no more than 15 days, TAP reports.
Rumours that the Central Bank Governor would be replaced have been circulating for sometime.
